( C ) The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage(孤兒院 ) knew little about her. The street where they found her had been her home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They left her long ago. At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else— to be independent(獨(dú)立 ). At twentyone, she left the orphanage and began to work as a secretary. And then, in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary, something special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong Competition and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody. Mary entered the petition because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something. Winning the petition gave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into television and then into business as a manager.
